[MMO] World of Tanks

[Harabec]

Well...I'm at "that point".
I need millions to buy a couple of tanks I have unlocked. Earnings aren't what they used to be and honestly, I'm fed up grinding credits.
Dunno what to do.

Buy a tier 8 premium? For a little boost log in daily and play the 'free premium' days.

I also had some horrible games yesterday.

I logged on and played the e-50 first. It was about game 8 or 9 for the first win.

 

[Harabec]

Already have T8 premiums. Even with them, I can't see myself playing for days just to afford one other tank. Maybe I'm just burned out?

Went from about 70k to almost 2 million since they started the log for free money.

I'm not enjoying this On Track for Bat Chat, absoultely hating the AMX 12t (done with it now) and the AMX 13 75 (currently on).

12t was okay gun it's tier but 4 degrees of gun depression... ugh
13 75, 6 degrees now, same gun now with t10 games... 144 pen gun (sad puppy).

Worse, 48% win rate in 13 75, 55% in 12t. I'm just not cutting the mustard well with it.

or like taking out the amx40 for a spin and keep getting into matches where half the opposing team is some combination of KV-1, matilda and the like. Stuff I won't come close to getting a penetration on until I get the final gun.

Full moon tonight has everyone playing like crazed muppets.

 

[JumBie]

Had a pretty amazing run late night to be honest, won 18/23 games. Some great teams, never ever had a winning streak like that in my life. Other days I will see a massive losing streak, however, if I play enough games I can bring it up to 50/50 which in the end means my winrate neither goes down or up, which btw I am more than happy with.

12t is very meh, no acceleration, kinda crappy gun. 13 75 is slightly better. The line really takes off from the 13-90. Despite its bad rep, I really enjoyed the Lorraine, and the Bat is the Bat...

I've been amazed at how many gold shells go flying out there now.

just wait until 9.8 when the AP round pen nerf hits, even more gold @ that point

Anyone having lag issues recently? Last night it was getting awful. I typical have about a 50ms ping but found it jumping up to as high as 500ms and then back down a few seconds later. Could this be a Wot server issue or perhaps an ISP issue?

Thanks ...

 

[Harabec]

I rebought the 13-90, plan on getting its crap wr up (currently at 45% or so compared to the much better % I had with the 13-75 - but last played both before they changed levels around) and get some xp for the amx30.

 

[lupi]

I heard some people complaining in game last night but I was always showing mid thirties.

I thought it was my connection, but yes.

I was my typical 15-25ms last night. But I live in California, the servers are like a 2 hour drive from me.

If you are playing on wifi, switch to ethernet. Wifi is very susceptible to packet loss which causes high pings. Especially if there are a lot of other wifis around you. Mine here at home is almost unusable during certain times of day because of how many there are.

I live ~20 miles from the east coast server and 6 miles from the Ashburn interconnect. My pings from home up to the last two hops are <20ms with 0% packetloss - last two hops are telia and wargaming where I get 30% pl and ~80-90ms ping.

Definitely looks like something on telia/wargaming side of things.

 

[Tsavo]

I had some pretty monster PL on the WC server late last night. Couldn't hit a damned thing. Switched to EC and everything was fine.
